John, Thanks for taking a try at this one. I think you are probably right that this would require an update to the firmware of the Accutech client. I may just get some mice and trackballs for the clients. Ken
Ken: Well, I was hoping that someone more knowledgeable than I would jump in on this one. I do have a couple of the Accutech units .... that we also like thus far. I however am not a touchpad "tapper" and, as a result, I didn't even realize that was the way that the Accutechs were set up until you mentioned it. But, now that I know that and have tested it on our machines, I can tell you that ours ARE set up with the tap function enabled. My suspicion is that this would not be easily adjusted until Accutech produces a firmware update that supports the ability to enable/disable tap behavior. While I know that some "normal" laptops support that functionality, it seems that it is likely trickier to support in a Sun Ray environment because tap/no tap functionality would need to be turned on/off depending on the user that "owns" that machine at the moment whereas (I think) it is a somewhat more static situation in a normal laptop. As an interim solution, does your environment support adding a "real" USB mouse to the Accutechs ... even one of those little travel ones? While that probably wouldn't work in a truly portable environment, in our case we've got our Accutechs on little roll-around carts that already have an attached mouse pad so we can easily add a USB mouse for those who don't want to deal with the tapping situation .... or for those who dislike touchpads of any flavor.
